Naruto: Starting with Tsunade

Chapter 460 Separation of Wet and Dry Products (Well...)

For some reason, Tsunade's cheeks flushed crimson, and she bit her lip, saying, "Wait a minute..."

"Hehehe..."

Aokiji is getting better and better at playing villains. I used to think it was silly to say that line, but now I think it's really good.

Tsunade trembled slightly, like a startled fawn, and asked coquettishly, "Is this what you meant by 'growing up'?"

"Yes, I have grown, in many ways..."

This day would come eventually. Tsunade had long been prepared for it. She closed her eyes, took a breath as if giving up, and said, "Fine, whatever."

"Huh? You've given up on resisting so quickly?"

Aokiji, having gotten the better deal, acted innocent, grinning smugly like a clove of garlic begging to be slapped: "You're making me feel so unfulfilled."

Tsunade snapped, "Then don't do it!"

Aokiji chuckled, "Just kidding, I'll do it, I'll do it, okay?"

Tsunade gritted her teeth, wanting to unleash a punch and start a domestic violence attack, but something else quickly made her hold her tongue: "Wait, don't pull on it, it'll break."

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I was too presumptuous."

Taking advantage of a moment when no one was looking, Aokiji leaned his head in.

Ninja Art: The Ultimate Technique of Taijutsu - Heart Absorption Technique

"etc……"

"!@#￥%……&*?"

"Wait, what are you doing now!?"

"Sorry, sorry, I couldn't help myself..." Aokiji's impulsive hand crossed the line.

"..."

"What's wrong?" Aokiji asked worriedly when he suddenly fell silent. "Your body is burning up. Have you caught a cold?"

Tsunade cursed, "Damn it, who do you think is to blame for what I'm doing?"

Aokiji felt extremely ashamed upon hearing this: "Wait a moment, I'll take your temperature with a thermometer, and then give you an injection to bring the fever down."

Tsunade was completely bewildered, her mind not quite processing what was happening, but she quickly came to her senses.

The blue pheasant retreated in order to advance.

Tsunade's eyes rolled back, and she nearly fainted: "It hurts so much! You bastard Aokiji, I'm going to kill you! You didn't use a thermometer, you practically gave me a shot!"

"I have a mixed type."

"A composite type, my foot!"

"Sizzle..."

"Wait, don't move."

"That won't do. The thermometer needs to be heated evenly to get an accurate reading. Otherwise, I don't know how many milliamps I'll have to inject later."

Tsunade gritted her teeth, clenching her fists so tightly that her thumbs turned slightly white: "I will definitely kill you, kill you..."

That night, Tsunade had a fulfilling time, and Aokiji had a wonderful time; both of them grew significantly.

One week later.

Uchiha clan territory, training ground.

Aokiji sat on a large rock, propping his chin up with one hand, yawning incessantly, his eyes as black as a panda's.

Lately, my life has been repetitive, going back and forth between two points every day, sleeping in three shifts.

Sasuke, who was training, saw his teacher looking listless and asked curiously, "What's wrong, Aokiji-sensei? Haven't you been sleeping well lately?"

Aokiji rubbed his eyes: "A little, I've been busy with Tsunade lately..."

Sasuke was taken aback: "Tsunade?"

Aokiji quickly corrected him: "I'm busy with my Hokage duties..."

"Tsunade-neechan is really something, always dumping her work on you."

Sasuke finally understood. Tsunade was really going too far, taking up Aokiji's time even after he had finished get off work.

"Sigh, there's nothing we can do about it."

"Take a break now and then. If you keep working hard all the time, you'll ruin your health."

Sasuke asked with concern, "These tasks can be done in the office, there's no need to bring them home."

Aokiji flatly refused: "That won't do."

Sasuke was taken aback, not understanding.

Aokiji coughed twice, waved his hand, and adopted an attitude of "who else but me?": "The two capitals and thirteen provinces are on my shoulders. As the captain, I must set an example. Otherwise, how can I manage the other captains?"

The two capitals and thirteen provinces are the territorial divisions of the Land of Flames, with Konoha and the former Daimyo Prefecture representing the two capitals.

"Aokiji-sensei, you're really diligent. Don't you get bored dealing with this kind of thing every day? It's all such repetitive work."

Aokiji patted Sasuke's head: "Sasuke, you don't understand, do you? As an adult, you have to learn to find joy in hardship, otherwise you won't be able to grow."

Sasuke pondered the meaning of these words, nodded, and listened attentively.

He's already so amazing, and he's still setting an example for himself. So he can't slack off for a moment. He has to constantly remind himself to train hard so that he can become a captain in the future and protect this country.

Aokiji was pleased to see that Sasuke had taken his advice to heart.

Just then, a sweet voice called his name from nearby. Looking in that direction, he saw a hot woman walking towards him.

She had a beautiful oval face, bright eyes, pink lips, and delicate, snow-white skin. Her golden hair shone like gold in the sunlight.

"Ah, Tsunade, what brings you here? Don't you have work to do?"

Tsunade glanced at her with a captivating allure and replied, "Have you forgotten? I said I was going to take the day off today, and then you'd come with me to buy a new bed."

Aokiji remembered that the bed at home had been overwhelmed by the weight of the past few days and had broken down in a fit of rage.

The two were talking, and Sasuke was listening nearby.

Am I just imagining things?

I feel like Tsunade's complexion is getting better and better, her skin is becoming more and more radiant, you could even describe it as radiant.

Sasuke was puzzled. Didn't Aokiji and Tsunade work very late every night?

Why is Aokiji's complexion getting worse and worse, while Tsunade's complexion is getting better and better?

Could it be?

Tsunade pushed all the work onto Aokiji while she lay there enjoying herself?

The fact that Aokiji was afraid of his wife was almost common knowledge in the village, and Sasuke had also heard about it.

Thinking about it this way, Sasuke felt it was very likely, and his eyes showed a hint of sadness as he looked at Aokiji.

"Sorry, I won't be able to cultivate with you today."

Sasuke shook his head understandingly. Aokiji-sensei worked so hard every day, so he didn't want to trouble him: "It's okay, Aokiji-sensei, you go ahead and do your work."

furniture store.

The salesperson spoke eloquently, going on and on about how good their product was.

Although the two are the top two leaders of the Flame Kingdom, buying things still requires spending money.

Tsunade cradled the heavy full moon in her hands and asked for opinions: "Which bed do you think is better?"

At this point, one couldn't just say "whatever"; a clear answer was needed, demonstrating the decisiveness of a head of household. After a moment's thought, Aokiji pointed to a brown upholstered bed and suggested, "Let's go with this one."

After saying that, she gave an example: "The solid wood bed we used to have broke down too easily."

Tsunade thought it made sense and had no objections, so she bought two of these upholstered beds.

The salesman bent down and immediately went to carry out the process.

Aokiji couldn't understand this manipulation: "Tsunade, our house is quite big, but we don't need to buy two beds that just take up space."

"You don't understand."

Aokiji was taken aback: "What don't I understand?"

Furniture stores are busy with a lot of people, so Tsunade found it difficult to talk about this: "Oh, please don't ask."

Aokiji realized something was wrong: "Hey, Tsunade, you're not planning to sleep in a separate room from me, are you?"

"You're overthinking it. Besides, even if I wanted to break up, would you agree?"

"Oh, that makes sense. So why did you buy two beds?" Aokiji asked curiously.

"You're so long-winded."

"Alright, alright..."

Aokiji doesn't argue with Tsunade; as long as she's happy, that's all that matters.

The two of them took the day off today; they've been exhausted these past few days and really need a good rest.

The furniture store was very efficient. Not long after Aokiji and Tsunade returned home, several burly men carried a padded bed into the house.

The burly man inquired and found two upholstered beds placed there.

Tsunade put one arm around her waist and pointed to a room with the other: "Just put them all in there."

The burly man was taken aback and gave Tsunade a strange look.

He wondered if the Hokage and Aokiji had a fight and were sleeping in separate beds.

It was not their place to ask such questions, so they focused on putting two upholstered beds into the room. The room was spacious enough to fit two beds, with room to spare.

Then, they quickly left the scene to avoid getting involved in the family disputes of these two big shots.

After the burly man left, a bewildered Aokiji couldn't help but ask, "Hey, Tsunade, what do you mean by this? Taking advantage of me and then leaving me alone?"

Seeing that no one was around, Tsunade's cheeks flushed and her voice was barely audible: "This is for separating wet and dry areas..."

What is wet and dry separation?

Aokiji, being so innocent, was completely bewildered; he genuinely didn't understand.
